Product Description
"Baha'u'llah (November 12, 1817 - May 29, 1892), born Mirza Husayn-'Ali Nuri, was the founder of the Baha'i Faith.
He claimed to fulfill the Babi prophecy of "He whom God shall make manifest", but in a broader sense he also claimed to be the "supreme Manifestation of God", referring to the fulfillment of the eschatological expectations of a prophetic cycle beginning with Adam, and including Abrahamic religions, as well as Zoroastrianism, the Indian religions, and others. Baha'is see Baha'u'llah as the initiator of a new religion, as Jesus or Muhammad - but also the initiator of a new cycle, like that attributed to Adam.
Baha'u'llah authored many religious works, most notably the Kitab-i-Aqdas and the Kitab-i-lqan. He died in Bahji, Palestine, present-day Israel, and is buried there.
